How Milone got graded beggars belief.He must have strong connections @ concord & can't possibly be getting paid.

Milone would struggle playing park footy.

Yep .. there is certainly something bigger than JT behind it . As much as we bag him he has played 1st grade rugby league and isnt that f**king stupid . A sponsor or relative has to be playing its part , im 100% sure of it.

I don't think this is the case. I reckon JT chooses the team.

I dont believe that sorry.He was employed by the Roosters , a club that doesnt tolerate mediocrity but at Weststigers he is suddenly devoid of league knowledge ? I dont wear it , also if Oneill stepped in on beer and pizza then why isnt he stepping in on this lunacy

I think the team selections are all on Taylor. I just can't see the board or someone else picking the team.

I think if something like that was happening Taylor would come out and complain. He has continually said he has the support of the board/management.

He has been pretty much the worst coach I have ever seen. Last year he came here and just spoke crap and we came basically dead last with a team that had minimal injuries and appeared to have a decent amount of talent. This year he has been better from what I can tell but he is starting to cop some injuries and players aren't performing.

To be fair to the guy Brooks and to a lesser extent Moses aren't performing. If these guys were playing well then we would be going a lot better.

Did Potter spill the beans ? Not while coaching and not even afterwards . There is no way JT is going to step on toes while he is still getting paid.
AS for Oneill the only 2 things heard he has acheived as Football manager is to excuse the players from JT's set diet and alcohol ban and also bring back the good ole boys like Whateria as a mentor .. lol the useless prick walked out on Parra 5 weeks into a contract and hasnt held a permanent job since ....ffs hardly a role model ... job for the boys personified

Potter is a different person to Taylor though. Potter had class Taylor doesn't. As for O'Neill he has only just started and I agree he has done nothing but time will tell.

I'd love to see Taylor turn this place around but I don't know if he has the ability. The players have to perform but Taylor needs to get them performing or piss them off.

No he wouldn't complain Tiger05. If he complains publicly he would lose his job immediately. The CEO and the coach report to the board. The board control everything. Potter didn't complain about not having control of the roster until after he got the arse. Go on the Wests Ashfield website and look at the board page. You will see the men who are really pulling the strings.

You cant expect Brooks and Moses to do anything behind such poor forwards. I don't who know is responsible for signing them but they are powder puffs. Probably better than other Wests Tigers packs but considerably worse than all the rest in 2016.

Nofo and Kev in doubt

Sue and Buchanan out

I can't see Edwards getting pushed straight into the starting side so Aloiai will probably cover Sues spot

If Nofo and Kev are ruled out we are officially dusted. Chee Kam and Addo Car possibly getting a run would be the only positive

Wests Tigers Coach Jason Taylor has confirmed some big injury news heading into Sunday's Round 7 game against the Melbourne Storm at Leichhardt Oval.

With captain Aaron Woods already sidelined due to an ankle injury, Taylor has confirmed Samoan international forward Sauaso Sue will miss the match with concussion, while Jack Buchanan will also be unavailable for selection due to a foot injury suffered at training.

David Nofoaluma and Kevin Naiqama are also both in doubt for the game, with the pair needing to pass a fitness test at training on Saturday to be included for the game.

Wests Tigers will confirm a final team for the game at 3:00pm on Sunday.
